The Event

For the first time ever, AIGA/NY will be partnering with AIGA National for a profit share on tables and tickets sold through our NY family and network. We are piloting this partnership as a sustainable fundraising mechanism for the NY chapter, and a great excuse to reconnect with past board members, active members and the NY design community.

Please join us on April 21, 2017 for a night of community, fun and medalists at Pier Sixty at Chelsea Piers. Meet the current AIGA/NY board members, rub shoulders with leading designers and company decision makers, while sipping libations and dining on divine hors d’oeuvres.

This year’s honorees include:

Art Chantry, recognized for his intrepid exploration of subculture visual communication, and his fearless celebration of cultural diversity.

Emmett McBain, recognized for his revolutionary design leadership and profound social impact in co-founding the Burrell-McBain Advertising.
